  1. What's wrong with people bringing up potential markets to tap into? That's what all good businesses do? I don't agree that we'll suddenly be able to recruit 10k more fans but have no problem with the fans who are suggesting potential growth.
  2. For who?! It's just boring sarcastic ******** trying to get people's backs up and not able to have a discussion with people without bringing back something they said 5 years ago...
  3. I've never said we won't? We'll probably go down to an average of 25/6k if we do. Atleast our fans support Southampton though rather than readings who 50% of their fan base are neutrals
  4. Reading will go back to having 4000 away fans and attendances of 18k again next year.
  5. So would I. But not with Lallana as well?!
  6. In his little argumentative world yes probably, but only because everyone else thinks it's ridiculous
  7. Thought we weren't getting the rugby game?!
  8. St Mary's is about right for us at the moment. If we do move up the table and are challenging regularly for a top half spot then maybe we'll expand it, but until then we'll just have empty seats everywhere.
  9. NZonzi...very odd. I haven't seen much of him, but can't imagine he sees much of the ball in midfield playing for stoke.
  10. £120k. And no, surprisingly he's not mates with Jay Rodriguez as well as Andrew Davies.
  11. Fair enough. I can only go on what I know or speculate.
  12. It was rumoured all along that we wanted a 'marquee' attacking signing. That signing was Gaston. Has he been worth £12m for what he has contributed so far ? No probably not, but he may well do. You take that transfer fee away and the rest of our players were all done on the cheap. Although J-Rod's transfer fee was inflated I bet his wages are relatively low. I also doubt his fee was £6m straight up, it'll all be related with add ons anyway. I've always said we could have done better with what we spent but I also think we could have done much worse.
  13. Pretty much comes down to opinions though doesn't it....If you think Gaston and J-Rod will be failures and we will lose money on what we paid for them then the are a bad piece of business. If you think they'll get better with time and contribute a lot to us over the next few years (whether that is transfer fee or performances on the pitch) they're a success. Just think writing them off so early into their Saints career is massively premature. Morgan is a great example, shown glimpses of quality when he arrived and has grown into it and now by far our best player.
  14. We signed J-Rod way before Mayuka ? And Sharp isn't good enough.
  15. Maybe I am? But I personally dont see why we'd even think about letting him go.
  16. So you don't think we could have put work into 2 different positions at once ? You think we bought J-Rod instead of others? You would have been happy to go into the season with 1 striker in Lambert?
  17. Im sure if we were trying to get rid of him he would have gone. There would have been enough takers.
  18. How do you know they were neglected or maybe we just struggled to bring in the talent at CB that we wanted? Yoshi is hardly a bad player is he.
  19. So you think we should have brought in a player and just never played Rickie ? You don't think he deserves his chance in the prem or capable ? Yes we could have brought in a high paid prem player on his way down, but the idea was to bring in a player who can learn his trade here and for him to learn from Rickie. How much would it cost to get a player better than Rickie? 10m? 15m?
  20. Deary me how are you so unable to gather the concept, it's quite something...! Just becuase he is more expensive than someone that we paid £1m for 3 years ago, doesn't mean he's suddenly much better than him? Rickie is a top player and if they were the same age, Rickie would cost much much more. That doesn't mean that J-Rod is ****, it just means Rickie is a good player ? Understand ?
